Reloading your AR-15 just got a lot quicker with the new Battery Assist Device (B.A.D. Lever) from Magpul Industries! The lever is an attachment that bolts on to your existing bolt release with a simple Allen screw. It allows you to lock and release the bolt with just the tip of your trigger finger from the fire ready position - your hand never has to leave the grip!

The Magpul BAD lever will take seconds off of your reload time. It also speeds up the clearing of stoppages that may occur when running your AR. Whether you use your AR for work, competition, or just recreation, you can speed up operation and save precious seconds by installing the Magpul B.A.D. Lever on your AR-15.

AR essential for righties, must have!

Posted by Monty on 23rd Oct 2017

Just bought a second one for my fiances build I am currently working on. I honestly can not think of any reason not to get one of these for every AR-15 out there, unless you are left handed. Best purchase by far!

High Quality Product

This is my 2nd BAD lever from Magpul, Awesome product, easy install and high quality as well.

Pretty good, but needed work.

Neat idea, but not all bolt catches are the same. Mine was a bit too thin so that when the BAD lever was installed and the screw was tightened, there was lateral movement in the lever and NOT because of slop in the bolt catch pin. I fixed the problem by taking a piece of Teflon sheet (.015" thick) and cutting it to fit into the shallow oblong cavity in the lever. The soft nature of the Teflon filled the gap and the remaining thickness cold-flowed into the serrations in the bolt catch button face, locking it in place. The lever is now tight and works well.

Now all my friends want one

First AR, already spoiled.

This ended up having almost no play for me, pretty solid, pretty happy with it. Really had to tighten it more than you'd think.

No AR without it!

I would not want another AR to be without the BAD Lever. Simply makes for quicker operation for a righty without needing to change shooting grip. I prefer this one over the other I've seen.

Why did I wait so long to buy this?

Posted by John on 31st Dec 2016

I've seen all of the great reviews for the bad lever, but I was still skeptical. My hands aren't extremely big, but I do have long fingers and I was afraid that this lever would get in the way more than it would help. Boy was I wrong, it's placed nicely in the trigger well where my trigger finger could easily maneuver around it. Once you use this lever, you won't ever want to go back to locking/releasing the bolt the old way anymore. Love this lever!

It's the original and still the best!

Have it in all my ARs; makes locking/releasingT the BCG a breeze. Wing tactical have the best price and fast shipping!

Pretty cool

I think it's a cool mod, only down fall, it has a lot of play.

Must Have!

Posted by Manny on 10th Sep 2016

A buddy of mine adds this to all his builds and recommended it. I added this to an existing stock rifle with some Strike Industries furniture and it's like a brand new rifle. Took it to the range and the first thing my brother noticed was the BAD lever and said this is amazing. Installs in less than 5 minutes , makes loading a new mag easier, no need to charge it just tap the lever while still mounted and you're good to go. Must have, will order for ALL builds.

awesome

Short Screw Stripped Threads

Posted by Brian on 7th May 2015

First impression of the product was good solid feeling construction, until I installed it. I installed it and locked the bolt back and used the BAD to release the bolt. I noticed it instantly came loose on the bolt release. Upon further inspection I determined the provided screw was not long enough to grab all the threads on the rear plate, and the threads had stripped. I then used vice grips to hold the two pieces together in an attempt to squeeze the plates together so the screw could grab the remaining threads, no luck, the screw was just not long enough.

vary usefull,

I have installed the BAD leaver to all my rifles. It's quick to install, easy to operate, while keeping the weapon pointed down range. Your hand stay on the grip while the charging handle to actuated with support side hand.
